Gardening. . .quite a bit of fun for kids

Last week we picked up some seeds and planted a container garden. 

We have plenty of land to do a proper garden but we wanted to have some herbs and "salad" stuff on the deck for easy access.

So we grabbed some leaf lettuce, green onions, hot peppers (red and round) along with oregano, cilantro and something else--thyme?  No, maybe parsley.

My littlest one was all over this adventure.  She couldn't wait to plant her garden.  And now she is thrilled beyond words that we have lettuce growing in two pots as well as the first pepper plant has popped up.

Daddy tilled the full garden area so tomorrow we can plant cucumbers, zucchini and her watermelon.

Yup, that's the good stuff.
